20 LD-based pruning parameters were the following: 50-SNP window size, 5-SNP window slide at each step, variance inflation factor threshold = 2.
Given the potential for collinearity between maternal and infant genotype in this final model, correlations between independent variables and collinearity diagnostics were examined; an a priori variance inflation factor threshold was set at 10. Regression diagnostics were run on all models.
And the minimum investment qualification covers people whose net worth doesn't meet the inflation-adjusted threshold, but nonetheless have substantial assets invested, likely leaving limited remaining capital to participate in private offerings.
Though far more people can pursue these admittedly extremely risky investments than could in 1983, there is no evidence that the present definition has harmed individuals who would be excluded under an inflation-adjusted threshold.
